Setting the Standard for Ultra-Fine Ashes

We take great care to reprocess all received ash stock to ensure the highest quality for your use. Ashes often arrive with natural impurities such as small bits of charcoal, sand, and other particles, as they are traditionally prepared without modern equipment. To guarantee purity and consistency, we meticulously sieve all ashes, removing any rough bits and impurities. The result is an ultra-fine powder, sifted to a 150-micron fineness using laboratory-grade sieves and advanced dehydrating equipment. This process ensures smooth, clean ashes, providing an enhanced experience for all your Rapé preparations.
